Female Novel
Chapter 655 Kill Declaration!
That night.
Mr. Ward was awake all night, tossing and turning.
Meanwhile, the Hughes family who were thousands of miles away.
Patrick had been sitting in his study room all night.
His ashtray was full of cigarettes butts.
The entire room was filled with the pungent smell of smoke.
He knew he needed to stop but he was unable to.
But Patrick had never been in such turmoil before.
He knew that how terrible things could be if Jack killed George inside the house of the Hughes family.
However he knew better than anyone, that no one could stop this from happening!
Even as his biological father, there was nothing he could do.
No matter what, there was going to be trouble!
At this point, the whole night Patrick had been thinking about how he could help Jack to clean the mess
afterwards.
As the head of the Hughes family, he didn’t care at all for George’s life.
Blood for blood, it never changes.
Not only Jack, but even he thought that George should be killed.
After all, George was one of the potential heirs of the Hughes family.
However, the assassination of Jack was carried out secretly by George.novelbin
Even when Patrick was overseeing the Hughes family, he didn’t know that George had secretly gone
out to do this, and therefore he didn’t even know that he had returned once he had done this.
The whole of the Hughes family would never know that George had tried to kill Jack first.
Instead, in their eyes they would only ever see Jack trying to kill George.
This was the key point!
Even as the head of the Hughes family, it was hard to protect a person who had killed the heir of
Hughes family .
“Just how to save Jack?”
Patrick was extremely disappointed, and as he looked up at the sky and rubbed his face, then he
looked at the ceiling and muttered sadly, “Sophie, how am I going to help Jack get through this mess?”
He had never thought of blaming Jack, but instead as his father he had only ever thought about how to
protect Jack.
But alas, even after thinking about it all night, he had still come up with no solution.
It was starting to turn bright outside.
A loud scream then suddenly woke the entire Hughes family in an instant.
Hearing the loud scream from far away.
“Come yet ”
Patrick with his tired face looked agonized.
His red eyes were glistening.
Then suddenly.
“Not good, this is not good!”
A servant of the Hughes family hurriedly panicked and stumbled to the courtyard outside the study
room and then suddenly knelt down onto the ground.
As a servant he did not have permission to charge into the head of the Hughes family’s study room.
Patrick pressed his two hands on the table, and suddenly felt powerless at this moment.
Why had dawn arrived so quickly?
Why couldn’t he be given just a little more time?
With every step he took, Patrick began to feel more and more agonized.
As soon as he walked out of the study room.
He saw the servant who was kneeling on the ground looked terrified, holding a white letter with both
hands above his head.
“Give that to me!”
Patrick stretched out his hand.
The servant hurriedly got up and bowed forward as he handed the white letter over to Patrick.
Although this white piece of paper alone was nothing special.
It was what was written on it that caused Patrick’s heart to race.
The words written in red, even after the ink had dried, you could still see some smudge marks next to
some of the strokes.
It was blood!
There were just a few words written in blood!
They wrote, ‘Today, I must kill George!’
These five words written in blood were written at the top of the paper.
This was not a threat, this was real and enough to make any member of the Hughes family go into
panic.
“Master…”
Patrick saw that the servant look weak and pale .
Even though his heart tightened when he looked back at these five words.
So just imagining how a servant of the family would be feeling after seeing this.
He felt as if he was being struck by lightning when he read those words.
Right now he felt nothing but fear and trepidation.
“How did you find this?”
Patrick looked at the servant.
“I...., I am on duty today. I am responsible for cleaning the archway of the house, and it was then that I
saw this paper nailed to one of the pillars.”
The servant’s voice was trembling non-stop as he said this.
“Has anyone else seen this?” Patrick asked, “Was it you who yelled out very loudly before?”
The servant’s body shivered; Suddenly his face turned deadly.
He then nodded his head.
When he saw the servant nod his head, Patrick’s heart immediately sank.
Although this letter written in blood had been discovered by the servant, however after the servant
yelled, not only did he alert Patrick but now other members of the Hughes family would also have
known about it!
As expected.
The servant then said in a state of panic, “Master, apart from you, also a few of the other servants and
guards, Killian and Archer have seen it.”
“Ha, leave now.”
Patrick smiled and signalized the servant to leave.
Looking at the Kill Declaration, at this moment, he felt helpless and did not know what to do at all.
“Killian is now under the command of Madam Hughes, while Archer is just a jerk and good for nothing.
He is nothing but another shit-stirrer and enjoys my misfortune very much. Kill Declaration has been
thrown into the Hughes family by Jack and has made the whole family restless in an instant.”
As he said this, although Patrick looked both sad and helpless, there was also a strange smile on his
face.
Then at this moment.
“Master, Master… this is not good!!”
He heard a shout coming from outside the courtyard.
“The shit-stirrer got here quickly.”
Patrick’s expression turned cold.
A second later.
He saw Archer who was rushing in.
Archer looked both frightened and angry.
He held a high position within the Hughes family.
Although he didn’t possess many capabilities, during his time wielding the power, he was used to things
like this.
But compared to all of the other things he had witnessed, this letter written in blood was the biggest
shock he had ever had to face.
The Hughes family!
The highly esteemed Hughes family!
Who looked down upon everyone else as if they were nothing!
As he recalled his memories, he couldn’t remember even one time that the Hughes family had been
provoked like this.
This Kill Declaration was a direct insult to the whole Hughes family!
“Blood letter, Kill Declaration!”
Archer said in a panic, “That letter in your hand, the Kill Declaration targeted George, my god, has our
family ever been provoked like this before? Whoever wrote this letter treats us if we are nothing, you
Patrick as the head of the Hughes family, you need to do something quickly, otherwise we will really
have our family reputation tarnished.”
Meanwhile, over at the Buddhist Hall this early morning.
Buddhist chants echoed throughout the hall.
Madam Hughes was kneeling on a prayer cushion, concentrating on her pray.
As a follower of Buddhism, she read her sutras as merit and preyed every morning and night without
fail.
While beside her were a dozen maidservants who stood and waited quietly.
This was because once Madam Hughes had finished her pray, they needed to help her bathe and
prepare her breakfast.
Fearful to disturb her, they didn’t dare to even make the slightest movement.
This was because when Madam Hughes was praying, she demanded total silence.
If you did however disturb and interrupt her chanting of the Buddhist sutras, you would be punished as
if you had killed someone.
However.
“Grandma! We have a problem!”
A loud yell was coming from the courtyard, and suddenly it was heard inside the Buddhist hall .
Bang...
Madam Hughes pressed her prayer beads tightly, her brows tightened, and when she opened her eyes
she looked furious.
She turned her head abruptly and saw that Killian had rushed into the Buddhist hall.
Seeing this made her even angrier.
Her gaze was fierce and cold.
“You fool, how dare you disturb me when I am praying to Buddha.”
But without waiting for her to finish.
Killian said bluntly, “Someone sent Kill Declaration for the death of George!”
